Definitions
- XHTML-Print printing data that is printing data in the XHTML-Print language
- XHTML-Print extension data is generated corresponding to contents set by a user by inserting the generated XHTML- Printing extension data into XHTML-Print basic data prepared in advance, thus generating the XHTML-Print printing data adaptively according to an intention of the user.
- aspects of the present invention provide a method of generating XHTML-Print printing data, by which XHTML-Print extension data is generated corresponding to contents of standard data desired to be printed, and by inserting the generated XHTML-Printing extension data into XHTML-Print basic data prepared in advance.
- aspects of the present invention also provide an apparatus to generate XHTML-
- Print printing data which performs the method of generating XHTML-Print printing data.
- aspects of the present invention also provide a computer-readable recording medium having embodied thereon a computer program to execute the method of generating XHTML-Print printing data.
- a method of generating extensible hypertext markup language (XHTML) data comprising: setting printing-related options to determine contents to be printed from among predetermined contents of one or more standard data items desired to be printed; generating XHTML extension data that can be inserted into XHTML basic data prepared in advance, corresponding to the set contents; and generating the XHTML data by inserting the generated XHTML extension data into XHTML basic data.
- XHTML extensible hypertext markup language
- an apparatus to generate extensible hypertext markup language (XHTML) data comprising: an XHTML data setting unit to set printing-related options to determine contents to be printed from among predetermined contents of one or more standard data items desired to be printed; an XHTML basic data storage unit to store XHTML basic data included in XHTML printing data; an XHTML extension data generation unit to generate XHTML extension data that can be inserted into the XHTML basic data according to the set printing-related options; and an XHTML data generation unit to read the stored XHTML basic data, and to generate the XHTML printing data by inserting the generated XHTML extension data into the read XHTML basic data.
- XHTML extensible hypertext markup language
- a computer- readable recording medium having embodied thereon a computer program to execute a method of generating XHTML data, wherein the method comprises: setting printing- related options to determine contents to be printed from among predetermined contents of one or more standard data items desired to be printed; generating XHTML extension data that can be inserted into XHTML basic data prepared in advance, corresponding to the set contents; and generating the XHTML data by inserting the generated XHTML extension data into the XHTML basic data.
- XHTML-Print extension data corresponding to the contents of standard data desired to be printed is generated, and inserted into XHTML-Print basic data prepared in advance so that XHTML-Print printing data is generated.

- the elements appearing in the third SMS data item are caller (From), a callee (To), message contents (Message), and accumulated response times (Number of Replies).
- the elements that cannot be selected may be distinguished from the other elements, as in FIG. 2C where the elements that cannot be selected are shaded. For example, if a number for replies (Number for reply) is an element that cannot be generated as XHTML-Print printing data by the terminal, it may be distinguished from other elements. According to other aspects, the elements that cannot be generated as XHTML-Print printing data may be distinguished by other methods, such as a different font, color, or style, or may not be displayed at all.
- the element selection unit 124 selects one or more elements desired to be printed by the user from among the displayed elements.
- the one or more elements desired to be printed by the user are a caller, a callee, message contents and a received time.
- the extracted elements may be divided into header elements and message elements.
- the message elements are elements indicating the contents of a message and the header elements are elements excluding the message elements. That is, a caller, a callee, and a received time are examples of header elements and message contents is a message element.
- the style that each of these elements is displayed is set as a default. However, the user may set the style for each element as desired by the user. To do this, in the XHTML-Print printing data setting unit 110 according to the present embodiment, a style database (not shown), a style reading unit (not shown) and a style setting unit (not shown) may be provided.
- the style reading unit receives an input about a style desired by the user, reads a style corresponding to the input from the style database (not shown), and provides the style to the style setting unit (not shown). Then the style setting unit (not shown) sets the style of the elements according to the received style.
